What are Stem Cells?
Stem cells are un-programmed cells that can differentiate into cells with specific functions. Consequently, stem cells have big potential in regenerative medicine. Regenerative therapies are used to stimulate healing and are now being used in "IR Beautina Radiant Gold" range of facial skin care products. The main principles that define stem cell populations include the capacity to replenish themselves through self-renewal and the ability to generate differentiated cells.

Stem cells are found in the epidermal layer of the skin and are involved in skin growth and regeneration. If they are harmed by ultraviolet (UV) radiation, their power to regenerate will be jeopardised. It is therefore essential that we replenish lost skin stem cells, which can be achieved by using products with plant stem cells.

What are Grape Stem Cells?
A special grape from the Gamay family was selected due to its high anthocyanins, which are powerful antioxidants and free radical scavengers. To obtain these active ingredients, the stem cells are harvested and homogenized at 1200 bar, together with phospholipids to encapsulate and stabilize oil- and water-soluble components into liposomes. The resulting extract is carefully sprayed onto a powder based on isomalt. These grape stem cells contain special epigenetic factors and metabolites that are able to protect human skin stem cells against UV radiation.

Grape stem cells are used in cosmetics for the following reasons:
(1) Availability of plant material in dependent of the season and market demand.
(2)This plant material is completely free of environmental pollutants and pesticides.
(3)There is a constant concentration of metabolites in the grape stem cells.

What are the Benefits of Grape Stem Cells?
UV radiation is responsible for 80% of skin aging. Despite the use of sun protection filters, toxins and free radicals are generated by UV in the skin. This affects sensitive cells such as the epidermal stem cells that are essential and most valuable.
The activity of skin stem cells is the key factor in ensuring the vitality and regeneration capacity of the skin. It has been seen that products such as IR Beautina "Radiant Gold" facial treatments protects and maintains the activity of epidermal stem cells - even in cases of stress induced by UV. They also protect skin stem cells against UV stress and delays senescence of essential cells. Studies have shown these types of products can fight photo-aging, making it a vital treatment for healthy-looking skin.

Conclusion
Stem cells are the most important cells in the skin. They are the source for continuous regeneration of the epidermis, the formation of new hair and hair pigments. Reduced viability and premature senescence or apoptosis of stem cells is a principal cause for tissue aging. Using grape stem cell extract promotes regeneration of skin & hair and delays the appearance of skin aging signs.
